TECNO:
THE SOLUTION
AT HAND.

Competence, flexibility and tangibility: these are values that we believe in,
the distinctive features that have made Tecno one of the most widely known firms at global level
in the sector of poultry equipment.

A story that began more than 40 years ago and is evolving day by day, thanks to the collaboration
of a strong unified work team but above all thanks to the results and objectives
that we have been able to achieve. All over the world.

Innovation and technical research continue to show us the best way to

overcome with success all the challenges presented to us by the market,
but above all to give a precise reply to the various requests
and following discussions with customers with whom we work side by side.

Because at Tecno, consultation, helpfulness, professionalism and preparation

are not just promises. They are the strongest foundations for constructing a long-lasting relationship.

Tecno alternative systems include a range of products in different sizes,

for optimising the available space and volume of the poultry farm.

Advantages: the system allows a greater rearing density and facilitates

the movement of the birds on the various levels. The aviary, equipped with cleaning belts,
allows greater hygiene and bird well-being, ensuring a high production level and a lower cost.
AVIARY 450

The aviary system 450, developed from the concept of free-range rearing, is characterised by
a symmetrical structure composed of overlapping and offset rearing levels; the particular feature
of this system lies in the presence of continuous, overlapping nests, with a centralised bird ejection
mechanism and a 40 cm perforated belt for collecting eggs.
The ease of movement of the laying hens within the aviary allows access to the feeding,
drinking and laying areas, ensuring a uniform distribution of the birds in the system. The aviary has
transverse and lengthwise closures for dividing the birds into small groups; it also has corridors for
inspection and monitoring of the rearing areas.

AVIARY 100 200 126+126

The aviaries 100 – 200 – 126+126 are derived from the Tecno experience with cage systems; the
perogative of the aviaries, on overlapping levels, is to maintain the technical characteristics of the
cage system, but to allow the laying hens to make use of the rows and tiers, including the floor,
with total freedom of movement. The position of the nests facing the corridor facilitates inspection
and egg collection. Each level is characterised by the presence of a feeding chain, drinking line,
lengthwise perches, nests, egg collecting and cleaning belt.

 Drinkers

NIPPLE

The drinking system is of the “Nipple” type,

with drip-saving cup.
An adequate number is installed,
depending on cell capacity.

 Feeding

FLAT CHAIN

The feed is distributed by means of a flat chain

with a return circuit.
The system is driven by gear motors located
at the head of the aviary, with tension
and operation controlled by a MICROSWITCH.

 Egg
Collection
>Egg Lift collection system - “Anaconda” chain
“LIFT” SYSTEM
Egg collection by positioning the “ANACONDA”
cross bar conveyor at each level.
The speed of the belts can be adjusted according
to the flow of eggs and the machine capacity.
6 AVIARY
>Niagara system with bars
NIAGARA SYSTEM WITH BARS
Allows the eggs to be gathered from all levels simultaneously,
optimising the times. The eggs arriving from the gathering
belt pass to a drive transfer unit with bars, equipped with
special conveyors that allow even distribution over the entire
width of the Niagara belt. The drive transfer unit, equipped
with a system of belt cleaning brushes allowing soft shell,
broken or small eggs to fall between the bars and into
collection boxes.
NIAGARA SYSTEM WITH INTERMEDIATE STRIPS *
Allows the eggs to be gathered from all levels simultaneously,
optimising the times. The eggs arriving from the gathering
belt pass to a drive unit with belts, equipped with special
conveyors that allow even distribution over the entire width
of the Niagara belt.
* applicable on all types of cages except Aviary 450
> Backside nest Aviary 450 >40 cm perforated belt for collecting eggs – Aviary 450

The belt speed of the various systems may be adjusted so as

to adapt the flow of eggs to the capacity of the egg grader or
packer.

 Computerised
management

> Macronew

COMPUTERISED MANAGEMENT

The following automations can be programmed It is also possible to record the quantity of eggs produced,
by means of a computerised panel: for each tier and each shed.
Management and global control of the company, with
> cleaning manure belts (only when combined with Tds) >
graphs showing consumption, mortality and production
collecting eggs with the Anaconda, Lift or Niagara system
yield.
> lighting > ventilation > gradual opening of windows >
adjustment of the flow of feed and dosing of grit
> constant weighing of feed (to measure daily consumption
and the amount remaining in the silo) > measurement of
water flow > alarm management.

 Climate control

> Pad Cooling

PAD COOLING WINDOWS

Cellulose panels with high absorbency and evaporation
efficiency. The panels can be installed against the wall
or on the outside of the tunnel/non-wind hood structure.
By means of windows installed in the bottom, this structure
allows adjustment of summer and winter ventilation.
Rigid panels covered with pre-painted plate, insulated with
self-extinguishing polyurethane foam. Available in different
opening configurations, they allow uniform distribution of the
air throughout the shed, ensuring animal well-being in every
period of the year.

TECNO FOG SYSTEM

System of high pressure misting nozzles, located

in the area inside the non-wind hood, with the effect
of reducing the incoming temperature.

 Removal, drying and storage
of chicken manure

> Conveyor belts

>Storage on removal cart

REMOVING CHICKEN MANURE TDS

System of double polypropylene belts, motor-driven, with
heads and counter-heads on 3-4 levels.
System consisting of a tunnel on one side of the building,
with conveyor belts arranged on several levels.
The manure is distributed in cascade mode onto the belts with
micro-perforations, where it is dried by the hot air extracted
from the shed which is conveyed into the “compression
chamber” and directed uniformly onto the belts loaded with
manure.
The manure removal times, belt operation and ventilation are
controlled by a computerised system.

 Sheds

SHED STRUCTURE

Sheds with a hot-galvanised, electro-welded and bolted metal

bearing structure. Walls and roof made of MONOWALL rigid
panels covered with a sheet of galvanised and painted plate,
with insulation by means of self-extinguishing polyurethane
foam; alternatively, covering with rock wool and a roofing
sheet. The design follows the regulations in force regarding
zone and height.

12 AVIARY

VENTILATION
Self-cleaning high-capacity air extractors, made of
galvanised steel plate. System of galvanised steel slide
gates, completely hermetic when ventilation is off.
> 90° bends
SILO
Silo in galvanised plate with anti-corrosion treatment, with
possibility of loading from the top, with a pneumatic external
system, or with an auger and hopper on the ground.
The silo may be provided with load cells having MODBUS
outputs with impulse/kg for data centralisation.
The feed distribution system from the silo to the housing may
be accomplished with a spiral or a chain with disks.
